I Remain Faithful To You In Every Sense

In a time when dreams escape from pillows,
and faithless lovers start a frantic dance... 
as if they were hopeless and lost sparrows: 
I remain faithful to you in every sense. 

Our friendship has lasted for years
more than any other trying to match ours,
we're never motivated by foolish pretense;
and we keep afloat despite the fear we show.
If they tried harder and learned from us, 
they wouldn't be so jealous wondering how:
I remain faithful to you in every sense. 

The regrets they won't reveal remain in suspense, 
they can become the tears of a goodbye song;
and they will envy the happiness
we earned through painful mistakes
forgiving each other with a sudden hug:
I remain faithful to you in every sense.

If there's joy to be found anywhere,
they should look at us and know
that the source of all our thrills
is worthy love never fading with a glow;
we are always running and climbing hills! 
Oh, let them search everywhere...
hoping to find what we've found by chance:
I remain faithful to you in every sense!
